Recently, a facebook friend posted an old Forbes article from 2009, blaming the entire financial crisis on the Federal Government. I wrote a couple of previous posts here and here rebutting that idea, but I thought it would be interesting to look at it in relation to the specific Forbes article in question. Lets take […]
They say the Devil is in the details, but he’s often in the details that get left out. An article by one “news” organization that specializes in leaving out details is making the rounds on facebook today… It’s none other than World Net Daily, an information outlet that I’ve had fun debunking in the past […]
Yeah… I’m paraphrasing DEVO… Badly. CNN President Jeff Zucker is crowing about how his network “won’t be shamed” into covering the latest hearings on Benghazi. Um… OK. On his networks around-the-clock ridiculous coverage of flight 239: “If I take a step back from our coverage of the Malaysian plane’s disappearance, I’m incredibly comfortable with it. […]

Here is the latest web offering from the New York Times. It’s being touted as the future of web content, and will supplant blogs and newspapers as our source for information.

I don’t like the title I just came up with, and I don’t feel all that comfortable being critical of bloggers who I also consider friends. But Bruce… Dan… The name of your blog is “Gay Patriot“. It’s been 4 days since the election, and you’ve written nothing about the success of the four pro […]
